Staff and food are great. The bedrooms themselves are barely a 2 star and im not exaggerating. The whole hotel needs a makeover ASAP.

Old but well maintained property. We got a nice room with terrace view. Heart of the city center. No issues except for the parking. Parking was tough as to be expected in city center area. Loved our stay.

6/10 Good

This hotel was charming. There was live music and the staff were overly hospitable. On the downside, our sink didn’t drain, the WiFi didn’t work and the room was stuffy. The rooms could use some updates. But can’t say that I wouldn’t recommend this place.

4/10 Fair

Quick stay no to 4th floor
Quick 8pm to 11am stay on path elsewhere. Preface with hotel under construction but prices the same. Got given 4th floor room. Clearly a room they have not got to yet. Bathroom decent- room old musty no Internet and no tv channels paint peeling off wall. Walked past 3rd floor room as elevator goes to 4 only. And it was nicer. Superb location for a quick stay in donegal town. Centrally located.

2/10 Poor

Noisy rooms beware
Room was noisy with an extractor fan just outside our room. Even with the window closed it was noisy. We complained and even though it was turned off it still made a noise. We complained a further 3 times before we were reluctantly moved. If you get this room complain immediately you will know as it is noisy when you enter the room, don’t accept that it will be fine when it is turned off later in the evening, as we were told.
